The SWA-TRIEXTHEQ5R solves it by raising the whole mount head 220mm, buying back the clearance to track a target all the way through.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe assembly fits directly between the tripod and the HEQ5-R Pro head, with an M12 male thread at the top and an M12 female thread at the base. Machined alloy construction keeps the added 3 kg rigid, so the extra height does not introduce flexure or damp out more slowly than the mount itself. Also useful for observers who prefer to work standing, and for anyone imaging with a long refractor or Newtonian where the camera train adds further length at the back of the tube.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e220mm HEQ5-R Pro Mount Extension\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRaises Mount Head for Clearance\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eM12 Male and Female Threads\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMachined Alloy Construction at 3 kg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuits Longer Optical Tubes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDirect Fit No Modification Required\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the Box:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSkyWatcher Extension Tub Assembly for HEQ5-R Pro\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThreads\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SkyWatcher","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51395091202215,"sku":"GC39-SWA-TRIEXTHEQ5R","price":223.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/4083\/0375\/files\/GC39-SWA-TRIEXTHEQ5R_1.jpg?v=1790053744","url":"https:\/\/www.georges.com.au\/products\/skywatcher-extension-tub-assembly-for-heq5-r-pro","provider":"Georges Cameras","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
